tibadoe 4 #1 Posted June 5, 2012 Installing my 42" rear discharge deck today on my 314-8. All went well but having problems with the "Transport Height Adjustment". When deck is raised all the way up and lever is in latched position the rear bumpers are still about 1" away from touching under footrests. My questions is how do you get to the trunnion on the eyebolt to make adjustments? I can't really even see it. I must be doing something wrong. I will post some pics when I am done.

Don1977 604 #2 Posted June 5, 2012 You will have a better chance of see it with the lift all the way down. Then you will have to pull clip remove it from the trunninon to make the adjustment. That why I like my 1977 C-Series it's alot easer to get to then the newer models. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forest Road 594 #4 Posted June 6, 2012 There's an easier way to tighten your trunion. Remove the panel behind the trunion on the dash tower, my ignition switch iis there on my tractor. You'll see the top of the trunion. Get a ratchet with the right socket and extension and your all set. Tighten it up several turns and you should fine.

BOWTIE 226 #5 Posted June 6, 2012 HELLO, THERE IS ANOTHER WAY. YOU CAN GO BEHIND THE BATTERY THERE IS A OPENING THERE. LOWER THE DECK AND USE A RATCHET WITH A 9/16" DEEP WELL SOCKET AND 12"-18" EXTENSION ON THE EYE BOLT TRUNION. YOU CAN LOOSEN THE BATTERY HOLDOWN IF NEEDED.

tibadoe 4 #6 Posted June 7, 2012 I tried both ways to make the adjustment - using ext behind battery and removing dash panel. Both worked great. Only took a few minutes and got it adjusted without problem. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
